Chapter 338: Ambush on the Road
Dongfang Yi will always respect Nalan Jin's decision, as long as there is a place for her in heaven and earth, he will go with him.
Even if the road ahead is difficult and dangerous, Dongfang Yi will not hesitate.
Shen Caiyi had just been with Dongfang Yi for less than three days when she heard that he and Nalan Jin were going to the Western Regions, breaking all her previous illusions.
It is said that the building near the water gets the moon first.
But if there is no time, you can only guard an empty building alone, waiting for the new moon to wax again.
Shen Cai was not convinced, tried all kinds of methods, and even deliberately got injured, pretending to be unwell and calling him sick, hoping that Dongfang Yi could stay because of her.
However, she muttered about Nalan Jin's position in Dongfang Yi's heart, and also overestimated her position in Dongfang Yi's heart.
"Dongfang, I'm not feeling well, it's okay for you to stay with me today, when I was sick at home before, my mother coaxed me." Shen Caiyi pretended to be unwell.
Dongfang Yicai didn't have so much time to take care of Shen Caiyi, who was sick.
Even when Shen Caiyi was usually in good health, Dongfang Yi never worried, not to mention that at this time, he was like a drag oil bottle.
"Someone will send Miss Shen back to rest."
Dongfang Yi gave an order and asked the maid beside him to take Shen Caiyi back to the house. Shen Caiyi struggled to break free from those maids, and Dongfang Yi looked at her curiously.
"Dongfang, can't you take me with you? Why do you have to send me away? Shen Caiyi was a little angry.
"We go out to talk about business, not to enjoy the mountains and rivers, and I will take you with me next time I have the opportunity. If you want to go back home, I don't mind sending you back. ”
Dongfang Yi thought for a moment, maybe this time it was an opportunity to return to the Western Regions. Since Shen Caiyi wanted to accompany him so much, it was better to take the opportunity to send her away.
It can be regarded as a break from a fate that should not have been there from beginning to end.
"Nope! I wasn't feeling well, so I went back first. Shen Caiyi refused loudly and left with the maid beside her.
Dongfang Yi watched Shen suspiciously leave, feeling inexplicable.
The two of them packed up their things almost and prepared to return to the Western Regions this time, they must have made all the preparations. If you don't take half of the Western Regions, you will never look back.
"Why, I can't bear her after watching this for a long time? If you can't leave, you can't go. Nalan Jin stared at Dongfang Yi, who was flustered.
"No, everything is almost cleaned up, the things in the workshop have to be dealt with, and the province has to go to the Western Regions, you still have to worry about this side, and both sides can't do well."
Dongfang Yi shook his head and looked at Nalan Jin's forehead. He knew her cynicism, and indirectly said that he couldn't do without Shen Caiyi.
In the past few days, the gossip between him and Shen Caiyi has made Nalan Jin have been twisting a knot in his heart. He tried to take the initiative to explain to Nalan Jin, but she refused.
"Go find Lolo."
Nalan Jin had already planned to put it during the time she was away from Dongfang Yi
The workshop was left to Lolo to take care of.
In order to hide her eyes, she did not visit Luo Luo's mansion openly, but no one traded a letter to Luo Luo's hands. Meet in a humble teahouse.
But despite this secrecy, it was still noticed.
"This is the first time you've asked me out recently, is there something going on?" Luo Luo was a little surprised to receive Nalan Jin's invitation.
"I've been to the Western Regions before, and you know, my friend over there brought a letter back and asked us to come over, everything was packed up, but I didn't worry about the workshop." Nalan Jin explained in general.
"So. What do you mean? Luo Luo looked at the two of them.
"We want you to help take care of the workshop, of course, it doesn't take up all of your time, after all, there is still an uncle in the workshop, you just take the time to take care of it a little more. We worry about being taken advantage of by others when we are away. ”
Dongfang Yi took Nalan Jin's words and continued, but Luo Luo always risked Nalan Jin, which made Dongfang Yi feel a little unhappy.
"So ask for your opinion." Nalan Jin stood and said, which can be regarded as a resignation.
"Take care of the workshop, this ......"
Luo Luo pinched his chin and hesitated, Nalan Jin and Dongfang Yi exchanged a look with each other, and immediately understood.
"As for the rest...... It's not for nothing that we ask you to help, and 20% of the workshop's profits can be used as your reward, so that even if we are thousands of miles away, we can feel a little more at ease. ”
Nalan Jin also brought the power of attorney he had written before and let Luo Luo personally look at it, just to show his attitude.
After reading the power of attorney, Luo Luo stood up and walked around and thought about it for a long time. Nalan Jin and Dongfang Yi were also frightened for a long time.
Nalan Jin knew in her heart that at such an eventful time, getting Luo Luo's help was the only thing they could rest assured of, otherwise they would be thousands of miles away, and it would be difficult for the whip to take care of the workshop.
"Lolo?" Nalan Jin looked at Luo Luo and shouted without replying for a long time.
"No problem, you just go to the Western Regions and leave it to me. But there's one thing that if you get rich over there, you have to take me with you. Luo Luo definitely agreed to Nalan Jin's request.
"Definitely." Nalan Jin nodded happily.
"Thank you." Dongfang Yi politely thanked him.
The fact that Nalan Jin and Dongfang Yi went to the Western Regions is no longer a secret in Nalan Mansion. Some of the subordinates knew that Nalan was leaving tonight, and it would be useless to stay here, so they offered to go home to visit.
were all released by Nalan Jin one by one.
When the housekeeper heard that Nalan Jin was leaving, it was a good opportunity to come without any effort. So he told the news to Zhao Wenlu.
Because of the previous incident, Zhao Wenlu no longer trusts the housekeeper, and Zhao Wenlu naturally doesn't believe what the housekeeper says. It was only after sending someone to inquire that it was confirmed.
"What a good opportunity, I didn't expect that in such a short period of time, God would send me a good opportunity to take revenge. This time, I will let Nalan Jin go
No return. Zhao Wenlu gritted his teeth and said.
Peony was by Zhao Wenlu's side, and naturally knew that Nalan Jin was going back to the Western Regions.
This made her feel a little touched, and the Western Regions would forever become a familiar and strange place for him.
"Congratulations, since you have such a good opportunity, don't miss it." Peony reminded on the side.
"This king made her never come back this time." Zhao Wenlu opened his mouth to intercept the fruit sent by the peony.
"What does the master mean ......," Peony continued to listen to the truth and the truth.
"Humph!"
Zhao Wenlu didn't speak, but let the guards around him ambush on the mountain road where Nalan Jin passed.
In order to deal with Nalan Jin, it is also painstaking, every killer is one of the best masters in the industry, and killing people has never failed in their hands.
Zhao Wenlu also deliberately confessed that their weapons were painted with no poison. is worried that if these killers can't kill Nalan Jin, they will also rub off her skin and let her die slowly.
Although Shen Caiyi hid in the house, she still didn't want Dongfang Yi and Nalan Jin to leave like this.
Along the way, there are thousands of mountains and rivers, and the two people are together day and night. It's an unknown how long they'll go, and when they come back, there's no chance of an unknown variable.
So, at night, Shen Caiyi manipulated Dongfang Yi's carriage, hoping to destroy the carriage to prevent them from leaving.
However, what Shen Caiyi didn't expect was that the carriage she used to do saved her family's life.
"Let's go, Uncle Lao and the eldest aunt will be involved in the affairs of the house and the workshop, and the little aunt will be bothered, don't be impulsive in everything, and solve it slowly." Nalan Jin took Pei's hand and explained.
"You can rest assured that we will take care of this welfare." Pei Shi was still a little excited in his heart, Nalan Jin was not in the mansion, and she could show off her power again.
"Okay, it's not like I haven't left the house. What are you doing so sadly, it's the same as parting with life and death, take advantage of the fact that it's still early, and set off quickly. Nalan Wen was far from impatiently preaching.
"Well, then we're going."
After Nalan Jin said goodbye to everyone, he was helped into the carriage by Dongfang Yi. Shen Caiyi, who was hiding not far away, stared intently at the carriage, wishing that the carriage would break down quickly, so that they would not be able to leave.
But knowing that the coachman urged him to leave, and there was no problem with the carriage, Shen Caiyi frowned suspiciously, wondering if he had done anything last night.
Luo Luo's guards came to report that Nalan Jin and Dongfang Yi were already on the road, "Master, what should we do now?" ”
"I always feel unsteady in my heart, and I feel that the people on the side of the third prince will not give up. Go and send men to protect them secretly. Luo Luo frowned.
"Yes."
The guards ordered people to secretly follow Nalan Jin, and monitor Zhao Wenlu's people at any time, so as not to let them find out.
Sure enough, when Nalan Jin and the others traveled to a dense forest, Zhao Wenlu's people chose to start here.
"This place is so big with a forest
It always makes me feel a little uncomfortable. Nalan Jin glanced outside.
"Are you sick, do you want to go back?" Dongfang Yi asked worriedly.
"No, it's just the environment around me that makes me a little uncomfortable. Let's go. Nalan Jin couldn't help but shiver.
Dongfang Yi urged the coachman to leave the place quickly.
Zhao Wenlu's people hid in the shadows, watching Nalan Jin's carriage come to the trap that had been arranged first.
"Shoot the arrows!"
Hearing a command from the dense forest, countless shears coated with medicine were fired at the carriage, and the coachman vomited black blood and died on the spot.
The frightened horse ran away, tripped over the wheels by the stones on the ground, and the whole cart rolled over a long way. Nalan Jin and Dongfang Yi also flew out of the carriage.
The people in the shadows fired cold arrows at them, but fortunately, the carriage that Shen Caiyi had manipulated and tamed was broken, blocking the flying arrows.
Dongfang didn't have time to think, so he quickly picked up Nalan Jing beside him and hid behind a big tree.
They only heard the sound of fighting with each other in their ears, and after a long time, this sound stopped, and they looked back to see that it was Luo Luo's guards.
"Why are you here, they ......" Dongfang Yi looked at the guards in surprise.
"They are the people of the three princes, and the master expected that something would happen to you, so he sent someone to follow secretly, and sure enough, they have been solved." The guard replied with a salute.
